Sweet thanks for the tip it worked great. It's a whole new game playing it with the sounds right on cue. The cpu really struggles on track 3 because there's a lot more detail than track 1. If Mame came with netplay I wonder if Rush the Rock could see those settings and somehow work, I doubt it but I am just throwing out ideas. |

Anyone with a high end system tried Firefox yet? It works on my AMD Sempron, but stutters a bit. (Might be time to finally come back into the Intel fold, after a four year hiatus...) |

Rush The Rock doesn't work b/c the computer that MAME is emulating doesn't have a network card or network connector emulated - not the same thing and enabling net play (i.e. Killerera) would have NO EFFECT. |

Huge difference between the two. Not that it really matters; that must have been incorrectly deduced from Cube Quest benchmarks. Cube Quest, the first laserdisk added to mame, is thought to be the most CPU intense laserdisk game, emulation-wise, and according to johnIV's benchmarks, a 3.0 GHz Core2TM emulates it easy, and that the harddrive speed is a major factor. Anyway, all other laserdisk games are thought to need less CPU power than Cube Quest, so trying to guess how much CPU they'll need from CQ numbers isn't well founded. I'm not surprised that a 3 Ghz P4 can run firefox. FWIW, what harddrive are you using? 7200 rpm? (I'm checking if firefox is as HD limited as CQ.) |
